will be focus of YCIAS roundtable
The Yale Center for International and Area Studies (YCIAS) is sponsoring a workshop next month examining labor rights in the developing world -- particularly those issues currently being debated by human rights advocates and the trading community.
Titled "What About Sweatshops: Labor Conditions in Developing Countries," the roundtable will be held on Thursday, April 6, at 4 p.m. in the auditorium of Luce Hall, 34 Hillhouse Ave.
Gustav Ranis, director of YCIAS and the Frank Altschul Professor of International Economics, will moderate the discussion. The three participating panelists are: Pharis J. Harvey, executive director of the International Labor Rights Fund and an ordained minister of the United Methodist Church; Lenore Miller, president emeritus of the Retail, Wholesale and Department Store Union, UFCW, AFL-CIO; and T.N. Srinivasan, the Samuel C. Park Professor of Economics and chair of the Department of Economics at Yale.
The round-table is free and open to the public. For more information, contact Malini Saith-Doddamani at (203) 432-3413 or at malini.saith@yale.edu.
